Rest will not show

It seems like a simple thing, but I’m stumped. I’m fine-tuning a project. Measure 71 will not show the half-note rest. I tried creating an extra bar and rewriting the measure. It still would not work. This makes me wonder if measure 71 might be the culprit. I created two bars, neither of which would show rests in the newly created 72 and 73 measures. FYI, I do use Edit>Remove Rests, but not in this area.

Any suggestions? Thanks, Connie

Select the whole note before it, open the properties panel at the bottom, and untoggle “Ends Voice.”

Crazy! I don’t think I’ll live long enough to learn and then remember all these tricks. Thanks so much!

If you could give Dan’s post the solution tick (rather than your own), it will help future viewers of this topic.

Yes, there’s a huge amount to learn. But it does get easier over time!
